Growing up in a remote village in northwestern China's Qinghai province, Dudru Cering knew close to nothing about winter sports. However, he is now a cross-country skier.
Dudru, a 15-year-old member of the Tibetan ethnic group, previously played soccer at a local sports school. In October, he was selected to be a cross-country skier by the provincial sports college due to his good physical condition.
He is now training at a national sports base in Huangzhong county, in the provincial capital Xining.
